The Herb
Ribwort plantain (Plantago lanceolata), also known in folk tradition as the "Ruler of the Road", grows along roadsides, in meadows and wild places and has accompanied people for centuries as a resilient medicinal plant. It represents resilience, protection and regeneration and carries a quiet, clear plant energy that speaks to both the skin and inner balance. With its unassuming yet powerful nature, it is a symbol of physical healing and emotional protection.
